Maynard Adds Veteran Employment Attorney in Mobile
Maynard is pleased to welcome Anne Laurie McClurkin as a Shareholder in the Firm’s nationally recognized Labor & Employment Practice. Ms. McClurkin will practice from Maynard’s Mobile, AL office.
“We have been impressed with Anne Laurie’s employment practice for years,” said Walton Jackson, Managing Shareholder in the Mobile, AL office. “The skills and experience she brings are an integral piece of the strategic growth plan for the Mobile Market.”
Ms. McClurkin is a seasoned attorney advising employers concerning all areas of employment law with a proven record of defending her clients at both the trial and appellate levels.
“The addition of Anne Laurie and her deep background in employment law and litigation further solidify the firm’s nationally recognized Labor & Employment Practice,” said John Holmes, chair of Maynard’s Employment Practice. “We are excited to have Anne Laurie strengthen our practice in Mobile, and we look forward to working with her as we continue to grow Maynard’s employment offerings.”
Anne Laurie’s successes include winning a defense verdict for Mobile’s largest industrial employer in multiple race/gender discrimination cases tried by a jury, as well as winning summary judgment for the employer in an FLSA matter involving the alleged misclassification of a large group of exempt employees. Ms. McClurkin has received recognition from the Mid-South and Alabama Super Lawyers for multiple consecutive years as a rising star in employment litigation. She was selected to Mobile Bay Magazine’s Top 40 Under Forty and named as one of the Girl Scouts of America Southern Alabama’s Leading Ladies Honorees.
